Good ideas never go away

Good ideas never go away. Back in the mid-1980's while we were visiting Japan I saw a brick wall built in a curve. I loved the idea and tucked it away in my brain for future reference. I've dusted it off from time to time but for whatever reason the projects never came to be. But I was determined to use it when I could. On the Fox & Hounds Pub project I suggested it once more, drawing it into the concept art for the entry. The owners loved it! Today I finally got to carve that curved brickwork into the fiberglass reinforced concrete wall.

It will be a few weeks yet before it is cured enough to apply the paint but it looks pretty good already!

I can hardly wait to see it all complete and in color. Stay tuned...
